((Stuffl0rd, who I know from other RP's sometimes has internet problems, and Konrov said he can't post until friday. I was going to wait for the zombies to invade until then. I might just have him like rp 5 paragraphs of catch up instead idk yet))
((Sucks no zombies are coming for a while, I'm waiting on them as well, not much you can write about when your character is just bumming around home. Well I could just would be boring, although it is fair to give the other people time, so I'm good for now.))
For once, Dan set his alarm before noon, as he had been thinking on the zombies for a while, and got paranoid. He decided to watch some news to sooth his nerves. He turned on the tv, expecting there to be no reports of the zombies in the US. But when he turned the t.v. on, he saw the news. Wait.. Are there zombies in USA? Dan thought horrified. He took another walk around the city.
He saw Jarod and Andy again, so he chatted with them, a little longer than he normally would have, but being around other people helps Dan calm down. He talked to Andy more than Jarod this time. Turns out that Andy had lived in California as well, only in San Francisco instead of the mountains. He was in a small group of musicians who got invited to Manhattan, where they ended up doubling their numbers. Then the group hit hard times. They had to drop their highest paid members. That included both Andy and Jarod. After that, his story was similar to Jarod's. The only real difference was that he became a musician who played in bars and fancy food joints and bars. Unfortunately, his style fit neither place, so he was soon out of business. that's when he ran into Jarod again. Dan dropped a 5 dollar bill this time and was on his way.
((I've decided I'll play as Jarod and Dan, give me a minute as I compose Jarod's app.))
Application
Name: Jarod Washington
Gender: male
Age: 27
Occupation: (i.e. Police, Military, Doctor, Student, Other) former military officer, current bum.
Location: (Automatically NYC, specify what borough) Manhattan.
Physical Description: Tall, lean, strong, dark skinned, has a New York accent, hair naturally curly black, but he prefers to keep it a buzz cut, tattered clothing, hawkish facial features, narrow shoulders, large brown eyes, and small feet compared to the rest of his body.
Personality: Jarod is a very serious man. He doesn't often laugh or smile. He doesn't like to talk about his time in the Military, tries to hold onto any friends he has, sometimes spends starry nights on the ocean to clear his head, has a very strategic mindset (aka, he's very good at turning bad situations into good ones), and he wants to go to California some day to try to get some professional money, as he calls it (not money that begged for).
Background: (At least a paragraph) Jarod used to be very joking and funny, that is, until he provoked a knife fight with his sarcastic humor. One 14 year old kid got killed, and forever burned into his memory was the child's final screams. After that incident, Jarod started failing in school, he always thought of the boy and started crying. He often cried himself to sleep at his desk. He eventually started getting held back, 3 years, he missed 3 years of freedom. At 18, Jarod dropped out of high school.
He looked around for a job for a long time, about 6 months, when he decided to kill people who deserved it. He spent another 6 months in boot camp before being deployed into Iraq, where he spent several years as a Marine, he eventually got to be a high ranking officer. He planned attacks and stayed around the base.
When he got back home, he didn't know what to do with himself. He took the money he had earned with the army and tried to learn his favorite instrument as a kid, bongos. Eventually, he became quite talented, and when a small band of bongos, guitars, and flutes showed up in Manhattan, he signed up quicker than you could say, "hello, my name is Jarod"
He spent several more years in this group. When they started to run out of money, Jarod and several other band members were booted from the group. He called it a stupid fire, they fired people who did their job well, they could've fired their not so great players and lowered the other's paychecks. Jarod then spent several months searching for jobs, when he finally decided to start begging for money, he saw Andy, who had a similar situation. They started playing on the streets together. Getting whatever money they could.
Over time, both the men's clothes started to tatter from sleeping on the asphalt streets. They started getting only one meal a day. Jarod didn't want to get fat from all of the Carl's Junior and McDonalds they ate, so he and Andy started to do push ups and crunches before sleeping.
Then they met Dan, it was nice to have another friend, especially one who has money. But once Jarod found that Dan was just on spring break, he got discouraged, sad almost, that his new friend was leaving in a week or two.

@yaymarco, Accepted after you read the rules, you need to pm me something
@all, I'm going to write a suitable zombie invasion scene, and post it tommorrow night. You can then post happened to your character, how they surivived. Anyone who wants to do two characters, I'd really like it if you posted the app for the second character Before zombies invade. That being said, if your character, say, has a friend that escapes with them, and you have them around a lot, you could start to play as that character afterwards. Anyone who hasn't posted before the zombies invade (*cough* Stuffl0rd, *cough* sonrov) will have to play catch-up. The thread will probably stop accepting like tonight.))
